Kentucky beats No. 10 LSU in overtime as fans storm the field
Kentucky beat No.
10 LSU 35-34 in overtime at Kroger Field in Lexington.
The Wildcats tied the game with a late fourth-quarter field goal, then won when quarterback Kenny Minchey ran in a two-point conversion.
After the game, fans poured onto the field to celebrate.
Police escorted LSU coach Lane Kiffin away, while some Kentucky fans followed and shouted taunts.
The hostility was linked in part to Kiffin's move from Ole Miss to LSU in the offseason and his past role as head coach of Kentucky rival Tennessee.
Kentucky had also beaten South Carolina 35-34 in overtime the previous week, making it the first FBS team to win consecutive overtime games by one point.
The Wildcats may face a $500,000 SEC fine for the field invasion, and they are due to play Oklahoma next week.
